Vanessa Williams is taking another shot at Happily Ever After!

The “Ugly Betty” star announced the happy news earlier today on “The Queen Latifah Show” after blinding the host with her sparkly engagement ring.

Distracted by the diamond on the singer’s left hand, Latifah had to ask for some confirmation.

“Oh, sorry, darling. I got engaged,” she said. “I have had a lot of good things happen. I turned 50 when we were in rehearsal on Broadway, I just got engaged a couple of weeks ago. It has been a lot of blessings on this trip.”

Vanessa will be marrying her boyfriend Jim Skrip, who she met early last year.

She dished about her new man, and the roundabout way they first ran into each other, to Philly.com back in February after a performance of The Trip To Bountiful.

“He’s a guy I met a year-and-a-half ago when I was on vacation with my daughter in Egypt,” Williams said of the Buffalo native, via Philly.com. “You go across the world to find somebody who’s six hours away.”

Let this be a reminder that it’s never too late for love, beauties! Best wishes, Vanessa!
